The Virtual Conference on Earthquake Research, organized by the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Türkiye (tubitac) with Motto “We succeed together with Flag “was held Thursday with sharing of Many high-ranking officials of the state and the president of the Council.
TBITAK President professor Hassan Mandal who Occur in start of The conference mentioned that there are a need for science based approaches to be more flexible against Negative economic, social and psychological effects of natural disasters that may occur in the future.
“Science-based approaches will materialize with Accurate science based results and decisions. So, the most important goal of This conference is to evaluate these results with All our related institutions.
Stressing that the Council is working to bring together productive institutions information in Situations such as earthquakes and floods, Mandal stated that there are a need for creative information Production methods and human resources development for the problems maybe occur in the future.
Indicating that TÜBITAK has increased the existing earthquakes researchMandal stressed the importance of international Cooperation, adding to the increase of Vision of Publications on This topic and education young people on the issue in cooperation with Municipalities have become an essential part of Council agenda after the Izmir earthquake.
Our approach is production more Solution in place of supporting the project,” he added.
Pointing out Those projects related to studies in social and humanities also part of conference, Mandal said so special support programs He was also I started for Industrialists, universities and youth in earthquake region.
Knowing that all the data obtained will be collected in Joint Database Mandal said: “This database consists of of 35,000 photos. About 12,000 local maps are integrated here. not possible to compile science without data. You must meet that data with interface on a base. ”
elaboration on the fact That the council began a study update fault lines in country, mandal added These studies will contribute to the Turkish National Risk Shield Model Program.
Yunus Caesar head of Disaster and Emergency Management (AFAD), also took part in a session of Conference noting the number of Aftershocks since February 6 so far have been close to 22,500, adding that last The third month earthquake was the largest after the North Anatolia earthquake in 1668 f one It happened in Erzincan in 1939.
Comprehensive presentation information on The 7.7 and 7.6 earthquakes, Cesar said: “Duration of the first Earthquake with size of 7.7 was 65 seconds, and second Earthquake with size of 7.6 was measured as 45 seconds. To date, 22,500 earthquakes have occurred. This number is equal to the average number of We recorded earthquakes in a year. Just the number of Aftershocks between 5.0 and 6.0 magnitudes are 47. result of Both earthquakes, 400 kilometers (248.59 miles) apart of Superficial lacerations and displacements occurred of up up to 7.5 m (24.61 ft) occurred in the earth’s crust. “
Emphasis on importance of Scientific method and dubbing basic rule of Disaster management as a ‘make risk It can be managed,” Sezer explained that 44 universities contributed to the scientific studies at the Disaster Research Center AFAD and individually scientist studies. Sezer stressed the importance by saying that it is necessary to systematically integrate individual studies of Combine these studies on one platform.
Vice President Fuat Oktay who also Video message delivered as part of The conference, which lasted all day, stressed the objective of Bring Türkiye into office of A country that can respond quickly and effectively after disasters with Scientific approach.
On the one domain hands research in The earthquake zone is implemented out. On the other hand onedimensions of social Science part of the current Focus, Oktay noted and praised fact 124 projects are being implemented within scope of TÜBITAK Earthquake Research, incl research projects in geological, geodetic, tectonic and similar fields, as well as research or surface rupture, landslides and sea level. changes Projects will examine cultural and historical aspects, health, and logistics in the area of disaster. ’ In this context, 577 researchers from all over Türkiye managed to collect field data in many areas from health to logistics, from tectonic influences to psychological influences,” Oktay added.
To expand the scientific research on Earth after devastating earthquakes left over 50,000 people deadTÜBITAK has also Earlier this month a call for Scientists in country and abroad to join Special Quake Call is within range of studies on earthquakes financial support On the basis of opportunities on Residence of scholars, who I decided to participate.
